Yes, if you are talking about the normal carbon composition types having colour codes. But there are some non-linear types too.

Is a Resistor a nonlinear device?

It is a linear device if it is not a wire wound resistor. These become non linear to AC at high frequencies because of their inherent inductance.


What are the two main categories of resistor?

linear and non-linear resistor


Is resistance a linear device?

YES it is linear. It is a passive device classified as linear however as frequency increases its behavior will change.

What is bidirectional device?

In electronics, bidirectional device is device which can be used by both directions like resistor. It does not effect on characteristics of device if we change the terminals of that device.


The correct formula to determine how many Amps of current a device will draw is?

There is no formula it depends on the device. If the device is linear it can be ascertain but if it a non linear then it becomes quite complex


Kinds of resistors?

What is varistor?

A varistor is a variable resistor. It changes value dependent on the current draw and operates by changing its value as the resistor's temperature changes. For instance, during turn-on of a device, the resistor heats up causing the resistor to change it's value, thereby limiting the inrush current to the device. Once the initial start-up current is reduced and the device is operating normally, the resistor cools down and changes value again.


Why a transistor is a non linear devices?

A: THE WORD IS LINEAR. yes it is not a very linear device as a function of current
